| What crops will I find in my box? according to what is currently in bgreatly for larger shares from 8 -12 pounds at the beginning of the season, about 14 -18 pounds at mid-season, up to 25, and even 45 pounds, at the end of the season for our Largest Shares. Usually, there are between 5 -12 different varieties each week, or more for the largest shares that generally have a greater variety. Our averages are from 6-12 varieties in the Small Box each week; 7- 15 varieties in the Basic Shares; and 8-18 varieites in the Large Boxes. If your share is delivered to a Drop Site you will receive a Farmer's Choice Selection, with an emphasis on your likes most weeks, from what is "in season" that week. Those who Pick-Up at the farm will have the choice to mix and match your collection for the week and make various exchanges between the options for that week as available. If you are going to be on vacation, get a friend, relative, or your house sitter to pick up and enjoy your box for you. We love to grow everyone's favorites, but you are also encouraged to try the vegetables that may be new to you, or share that item with a friend. We try to offer recipes and suggestions in our weekly newsletters. If you have a household of picky eaters, a trip to the farm may be in order. Children, especially, are more apt to try something new when they have picked it themselves or have seen the vegetables growing in the field. Make this an adventure and learning experience for the whole family!
